Top 10 Fattest Footballers of All Time

By: Count_Down

#10: Mark Bosnich

He was lazy and he never like doing excercice and it showed as he added his P45 to collection of honours.

#9: Mido 

 Some journeymen have more clubs than most have hot dinners but it’s obvious this wasn’t the case for the Egyptian. He evidently has a taste for the game, having played at 11 different clubs but his appetite for food seems even larger.

#8:  Adriano 

The former Inter Milan frontman once had defenders tossing and turning in their sleep. Now the only people losing sleep are his club Corinthians as the big Brazilian looks to control his weight. Once quoted saying “I eat a lot of salad”, Corinthians will be hoping he scores like he lies. 

#7: Benni McCarthy  

Big Ben recently criticised Karren Brady, calling her “the devil with a pair of t*ts” after she slated his ballooning weight and said his signing was a mistake. Brady hit back at McCarthy saying “at least I’m supposed to have t*ts”. 

#6: Neville Southall  

The Everton legend returned to help Premier League new boys Bradford back in 2000 when City had a keeper crisis. At 41 and about three stone overweight, ‘Big Nev’ lived up to his nickname. 

#5: Paul Gascoigne  

Larger than life Gazza was never one to shy away from the spotlight. Unfortunately for the England legend, he was never one to shy away from pork pies, beer and kebabs either. 

#4: Neil Ruddock  

 ‘Razor’ should have tried to shave off a few pounds as his contract with Swindon was terminated for him being over 15 stone. Alot of respect to the chap at Swindon who had to tell him the news. Rather him than me… 

#3:  Willie ‘Fatty’ Foulke 

The former Sheffield United and Chelsea keeper once snapped a crossbar clean in two. Weighing 24 stone we’re not too surprised either. He also infamously chased referee Tom Kirkham after the 1902 FA Cup final, wearing nothing but his Birthday Suit. Fat chance he caught him. 

#2: Maradona 

 The Hand of God was soon the main accessory to help Argentine legend Diego Maradona shovel food into his giant gob. His favourite dish unfortunately isn’t humble pie but we believe revenge is a
dish best served cold. 

#1: Ronaldo 

 The chunky Brazilian tops our chart as the fattest footballer. Two World Cup’s and three World Player of the Year awards weren’t the only thing under Ronaldo’s belt as his stomach was too vast to
hide. He eventually lost his battle with the bulge and retired due to his size in February of this year.
